    Cool new Owo for a Disco Event next time? Interested in what "Honored" would refer to. maybe the trip to the "colony" the Red Angel made 50,000 Light Years away?



    Awesome sauce. I like Skirmishes. I have the Sarcophagus Ship at 6/10. It might run the Skirmish at that.

    Thanx. I guess that is the 4* I did not know by name?

    Yup.

    Truth be told, I would love if the name could just be changed to Klingon Sisko. I hate that the search function doesn't look for personae under different names.

    I wonder how hard it would be to add the tag for the real name of a disguised person? Like add "Picard" to the Search Tags for Galen and Dix? If what I am saying is clear. Not sure what to call it. But, the line of Code that says "Display this Crew if this, this, this, this, this, this, or this is typed in". {Which I know the line of code does not actually say!!!!!

    The crew already have invisible traits for their variants and show (dsc, voy, etc.). Would be nice, but occasionally confusing, if DB would include those two criteria in the search parameters.

    I've wondered about that, but I always presumed a manual flagging system is probably used for that.

    It wouldn't be hard. It would just be another hidden trait added to the cards. DB has just not prioritized the work.

    Oh, smurf yeah!

    Skirmish? Love 'em.
    Jodmos? Love me some Sisko.
    Wesley? Already got him and he's ready to max out my bonuses.
    Owosekun? Been wanting her for awhile. (Wish she'd been a 4*, but whatevs).

    Best of all, though, is that I'm a scant 45 schematics shy of maxing my Sarcophagus so I would really dig it if a Ships Collection became a thing.

    This will be interesting! I have the Sarcophogus fully built, this will be my first skirmish with the 5* event ship in possesion. I am going to have to change my battle strategy.

    This will be fun.

    Robin Hood is another Picard variant I always forget about and the search doesn't work on... Missed out on his bonus quite a few times

    There are several hidden traits: series, gender, character, rating (number of stars), organic?, bridge crew?, captain?...

    They were visible in the iampicard spreadsheet.
    I do wonder the reasoning why they are invisible in search. Especially the character name.

    I'm disappointed to not get a new ship, but excited to actually have the 5* ship finished. Does this mean I can choose any crew I want, as long as they're on the Sarcophagus?

    Alternatively, I may just go the route I'm used to and stick to my standard attacker (the Disco). So many choices!

    I believe the event ship provides extra hull, it does not improve the bonus payout.

    I believe this is correct.

    I was thinking this too. Thanks for posting with pic.

    Love me some Skirmish. See you in the top 100. :)

    Potential spoiler, but it’s S1 so hopefully no one is too upset. Wasn’t Owosekun honored by the Empress in the Mirror Universe and given a promotion for bringing in Lorca and Burnham? It’s been a bit since I watched it, but could it be Mirror Owo? Or Owo from the S1 finale where they all get medals? Much as I love that golden armor, I’m not looking forward to another week of failing 3/4 Terran shuttles every 3 hours for the single 1* emblem I’ll get, so I hope it’s Prime Owosekun.

    Yeah. I forgot that. Probably that, then. I was thinking maybe the Luddites on Terra-whatchamacallit welcomed and honored another Luddite.
